The Mountain Springs Water Company has two departments, Purifying and Bottling. The Bottling Department had 3,640 liters in beginning work in process inventory (30% complete). During the period 64,510 liters were completed. The ending work in process was 5,900 liters (70% completed). All inventories are costed by the first-in, first-out method. What is the total equivalent units for direct materials (using the FIFO method) if materials were added at the beginning of the process? equivalent units

Respuesta :

Answer:

equivalent units for direct materials = 66,770 liters

Explanation:

beginning work in process = 3,640 liters, % of materials added = 0%

units completed during the period = 64,510 liters, % of materials added = 100%

ending work in process = 5,900 liters, % of materials added = 100%

equivalent units = units completed during the period - beginning work in process + ending work in process = 64,510 - 3,640 + 5,900 = 66,770 liters
